After resting for two days, Rong Yan's injuries had greatly improved, and his complexion was no longer so pale.
Seeing that Rong Yan had finished another plate, Chen Yunyun and the two little ones exchanged a glance, both seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes.
Rong Yan has such a big appetite.
One meal consists of four or five pounds of meat, without any vegetables.
After he finished eating, his stomach was flat and there was no trace of him eating.
Chen Yunyun suspected that he might not have eaten enough.
If she keeps eating like this, her little granary will soon be empty.
By the time the New Year arrives, the family will be left with nothing but the northwest wind...
After cleaning up the dishes, Chen Yunyun went to the field to plant vegetables.
Potatoes, sweet potatoes, radishes, and green vegetables—regardless of the season, she has a magic touch that can accelerate crop growth.
Chen Yunyun returned home, supporting her back, having planted the entire acre of land with vegetables.
Passing by Xu Liangping's house, she quietly put down her hoe and peered through the door to see what was happening inside.
The house was extremely quiet, the main room door was tightly closed, and the snow in the yard was very thick, so it didn't look like anyone lived there.
Chen Yunyun suspects that this matter is related to Chen Fengjiao.
So she came up with a plan and knocked on the wooden door.
No one answered.
Strike harder, and this time the sound is louder.
A sound came from inside the house, a heavy footstep crunching on the snow.
"Who...is it?"
It was that hoarse, stiff voice again.
Chen Yunyun was startled; she hadn't misheard.
"Auntie, please open the door. I'm Zhijun's wife, and I need to talk to Fengjiao about something."
The person in the courtyard fell silent, as if listening to some instruction.
Two seconds later, Chen Fengjiao's mother-in-law opened the door.
Chen Yunyun tried to discern something from the old woman, but the old woman kept her head down, and the brim of her hat was pulled low, obscuring her face.
The old woman said in a hoarse voice, "Go inside... and find her..."
The door to the main room was half open, and it was dark inside, so you couldn't see what was inside.
Chen Yunyun wasn't stupid; she wouldn't go in alone.
So she ignored the old woman's words and stood outside the courtyard gate calling out, "Feng Jiao, I need to talk to you. Come out."
"You're not coming out, are you still angry with me for asking you for money?"
"Oh, don't be angry, I'm just here to pay you back!"
First, she made a big splash on the winter festival day, and then she was saved by the mountain god in a dream.
Chen Yunyun became a prominent figure in the village, and everyone paid close attention to even the slightest thing she did.
Especially since Chen Yunyun has a loud voice, all the neighbors came out to see what was going on.
"Is that Zhijun's wife? What's she doing at the entrance of Liangping?" someone gossiped.
Chen Yunyun smiled at her, "Auntie, I borrowed some money from Fengjiao a few days ago, and I wanted to pay her back today, but she didn't come out. I think she must be angry with me."
Xu Liangping's mother, who was hunched over, seemed to lose her balance when she heard Chen Yunyun's words, as if she was angry.
"Liu Meilan, why don't you ask your daughter-in-law to come out? She's not some young lady who needs to be invited."
It was common for Liu Meilan's neighbors, who were of similar generation, to address her by her full name.
The old woman replied in a hoarse voice, "She... is sick, she can't be exposed to... wind."
"Liu Meilan, why is your voice so hoarse? Did you hurt your voice while scolding your daughter-in-law?"
Everyone around knew that Liu Meilan's family loved to beat their daughters-in-law.
But that's normal; Chen Fengjiao had already cheated on someone, so it was inevitable that she would be beaten.
It's strange these past two days; we haven't heard any sounds of Chen Fengjiao being beaten.
Their house is very quiet, which is strange to the neighbors.
Suddenly a clear female voice rang out, "Auntie, you didn't kill Fengjiao, did you?"
"I already made plans with her to come to my house for dinner today. There's no reason for her to just stand me up without giving me a single reason, is there?"
"Auntie, times have changed. If you kill someone, you'll go to jail no matter if it's your daughter-in-law or not!"
Chen Fengjiao, behind the puppet, was so angry that her hands trembled. When did she agree to have dinner at Chen Yunyun's house?
This woman is just spouting nonsense; she just talks without thinking.
The key issue is that these villagers actually believed her nonsense!
"Zhijun's wife is right. Liu Meilan, call your daughter-in-law out! Let everyone see her."
"If you really kill someone, the village chief won't let you off the hook."
The people around kept talking at once. If Liu Meilan didn't let Chen Fengjiao come out, wouldn't that confirm the rumors?
If Chen Fengjiao comes out...
Chen Yunyun curled her lips into a smile. If Chen Fengjiao came out, then she would be able to figure out whether Chen Fengjiao was the demon or not.
With a creak, the door was opened.
Chen Fengjiao came out completely covered up, with only her eyes showing.
The villagers stopped talking.
Chen Yunyun tentatively called out, "Feng Jiao?"
"Yunyun".
It was indeed Chen Fengjiao's voice, but the covering was a bit too tight.
Moreover, Chen Yunyun noticed that the old woman hadn't moved since Chen Fengjiao appeared.
Like a puppet whose strings have been pulled out, it has completely lost its life.
Chen Yunyun's suspicion deepened, and she affectionately put her arm around Chen Fengjiao, saying, "Didn't we say before that you'd come to my house for dinner?"
Chen Fengjiao wanted to shake her off, but everyone in the village was watching, so she had no choice but to endure it.
“Yunyun, I never said I wanted to go to your house. I’ll go back if you return the money; I can’t stand the wind.”
The fish have already been caught, how can we let her go?
Chen Yunyun said, "Paying back the money is a small matter, treating you to a meal is a big deal. Let's go, the food is all prepared at my house."
Without saying a word, Chen Yunyun pulled Chen Fengjiao close, acting like the two sisters.
Chen Fengjiao glared fiercely at Chen Yunyun from under the brim of her hat, but Chen Yunyun was completely unaware.
After the two left, the neighbors were still talking, "Zhijun's wife seems like a good person, how did she end up with Chen Fengjiao?"
If Chen Yunyun were there, she would definitely say, "You guys didn't make up this story before!"
Seeing that the two young people had walked away, the neighbor patted Liu Meilan on the shoulder and said, "Aren't you going inside? Aren't you cold standing outside in this freezing weather?"
"What did you stuff in your clothes? Why is it so hard?"
Seeing that Liu Meilan did not react, the neighbor patted her.
This slap knocked the person straight to the ground, revealing a pale, ashen face.
"Ah—someone's dead!"
On the way, when Chen Fengjiao saw that no one was behind her, she shook off Chen Yunyun.
Even though Chen Yunyun had the strength-enhancing potion, she was still pushed and stumbled.
That demon really was her!
Seeing that Chen Fengjiao was about to zoom in, Chen Yunyun quickly shouted, "Rong Yan, help!"
Chen Fengjiao: Who is Rong Yan? I don't care! You're all going to die anyway!
The man took a long stride and stepped out of the void.
The powerful aura caused the snow to freeze for a moment.
"It's you!"
How could Chen Fengjiao not remember that two days ago, it was this man who severed her connection with her clone with a single palm strike?
It caused her to vomit blood and get injured.
If it weren't for this, she would have killed Chen Yunyun's entire family long ago.
Why did you ruin my plans?
"I want you all to die!"
